LH (luteinizing hormone) is absolutely necessary for ovulation to occur. LH surge triggers the release of the mature egg from the ovary. The surge in LH is the result of high levels of estrogen leading up to ovulation. Progesterone, FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), and estrogen are also involved in the menstrual cycle, but LH is the hormone responsible for ovulation.
